It's in the name

It's officially November and we are getting closer to Christmas before we know it, it will be here!  This fall season is moving quite fast if I say so myself.  But it's good.  As days move, so do I.  I am near finished receiving all my equipment, I just need a few more items to start productions for my upcoming projects.  But the one thing I don't have is a name for my video production company, it's mind boggling.  I remember when it was time to come up with name for our music video productions in college, it was such a long process.  We literally sat through a whole class to play around and pick each other's brains for ideas of a good name.  It was tiresome.  And now it's my duty to come up with my own name for my company, it's no easy task. I've researched so many different names and some are still out there for me to use but the thought of picking a name to represent me, is a delicate procedure.  My up and coming website will need the name and I want to represent well because it's my shot, really.  I look forward to leaving the link to my new website here once it's up and running because I want people to know I am out there.  This is very exciting and I know that my dear parents are proud of me and looking down on me from the spirit world proudly.  I know that much.  I look forward to projects, especially to the documentary we will start next year.  For now, we want to shoot local projects and short films in the community.  My son is happy and can't wait for his first production to get rolling, he loves the camera and so do I.  Our test shots we have done look pretty good and we are fully ready for the road ahead and I couldn't be more happier that my son will be by my side as we film projects.  It's a dream come true for both of us and I'm sure we will learn alot as time goes on.  I thank the Creator for blessing me with such an opportunity and it is one that will be shown off well through projects we do.

An Aboriginal Film Festival

I'm so excited to announce that in Thunder Bay, ON CANADA there will be an aboriginal film festival happening on June 19 and 20th of 2009 at the Paramount Theatre. There will be a total of 23 films shown that weekend, some first timers and some not. The program is not out yet, but soon! Coincidently, the Harbourfest is happening the same weekend in the same area and around the streets. The film festival is named "Biindigaate Film Festival" which translates to-->light shining in. I'm excited because my son's film will play there, as well as Georgina Lightning's film Older than America. She is going to be there as well, and I can't wait to meet her! The committee looks forward to there being many more film festivals to come in the years ahead, this starting it all off. I look forward to shooting my own film as well for next year's film festival. It's gonna be great!
